"Representations--both stereotypical and accurate--fashioned into playthings, date back to the early 1800s" Presumably people have been making black dolls for thousands of years - they certainly have dolls of other colours. Is this referring to a particular style or something, or is the date just arbitrary? Olaf Davis | Talk 16:48, 30 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've changed it to "date back centuries". Olaf Davis | Talk 09:07, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
